Public bug reported: I am quite often getting GPU hangups and machine freezes, and the following is in my logs:
Nov 19 21:17:09 derp kernel: [131426.756136] Watchdog[8655]: segfault at 0 ip 00007fcbb70bc72e sp 00007fcba7692650 error 6 in chrome[7fcbb3514000+5eff000] Nov 19 21:17:17 derp kernel: [131434.757554] [drm:i915_hangcheck_elapsed] *ERROR* stuck on render ring Nov 19 21:17:17 derp kernel: [131434.757557] [drm] capturing error event; look for more information in /sys/kernel/debug/dri/0/i915_error_state Nov 19 21:17:17 derp kernel: [131434.785406] [drm:i915_set_reset_status] *ERROR* render ring hung inside bo (0xef56000 ctx 13) at 0xef561c8 A quick grep for "IPEHR" in i915_error_state gives the following: IPEHR: 0x79050005 IPEHR: 0x00000000 IPEHR: 0x0b140001 Freedesktop.org Bug #70151 says the following: Fixed in Mesa 9.2.3 (out today), the upcoming Mesa 10.0 release, or Mesa master. This fixes the Sandybridge-specific GPU hang where i915_error_state (aka /sys/class/drm/card0/error) lists an IPEHR of 0x79050005. Therefore I think Mesa should be upgraded to at least 9.2.3 to fix this. ** Affects: mesa (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Tags: saucy upgrade-software-version ** Package changed: linux (Ubuntu) => mesa (Ubuntu) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to mesa in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1255280 Title: Update to mesa 9.2.3 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/mesa/+bug/1255280/+subscriptions _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post to : ubuntu-x-swat@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
